So Trump is always belligerent and bellicose towards Muslim countries, yet when the country responsible for 9/11 commits another act of terrorism on our soil, he bends over and says "It's okay, I have business interests in your country".
Sickening.
And did Obama issue a travel ban against Saudi’s while he was in office? No he did not. BOTH political parties are guilty of favoring Saudi money
That's nonsense. While the 9/11 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia (and we've had home grown terrorists ourselves, including those who have traveled to join ISIS and inflict untold death on innocent civilians in that territory), Saudi Arabia isn't sponsoring or otherwise supporting Jihadis.
Have you ever heard of Wahhabism? I suggest you research this, where its roots are and in which country it is cultivated, and expand your research into the heart of terrorism and its ideological foundations. This government not only supports it, it finances it.
And you'll see Trump LITERALLY curtsying to the Saudi's.
It's total BS. Trump loves the Saudis like nobody before him. He visited them first. He just glowed around them he was so happy. Jared and MBS are big buddies. They talk on WhatsApp. No other president or president's family were that tight with the Saudis. Any other president would not have turned a blind eye to the murder of Khashoggi, and then turned around and hand them billions in weapons. This is a Trump thing. The rest is simply an attempt at rationalization because Trump loves these guys and there is no Whatabout.
Nobody bows to the Saudis like Trump. The Bush family was tight, but nothing like Trump and his kids, who absolutely adore MBS, the Saudis and their repressive regime.
But since it is not fair, could you be more specific regarding the Dems and the Saudis? Specifically?
"...The U.S. relationship with Saudi Arabia is set to take a sharp turn if a Democrat wins the White House in 2020.
Such a break with a U.S. partner would come after President Trump has resisted congressional pressure to punish Riyadh over issues that have angered lawmakers, choosing instead to cozy up to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman...
...In response, Congress has passed resolutions to end U.S. support for the Saudi campaign in Yemen and block a package of emergency arms sales the Trump administration approved for Saudi Arabia...."
We all know progressives and their mainstream media already have their narratives in place for these things. Often the jump the gun and then slither away when it isn't the ubiquitous "white guy."
All this hand-wringing over Saudis is just deflection.
I have yet to see the progressive media response and you might be right.
But I stand by my criticism.
I understand when we sell the Saudis our equipment we then have them here to train them as part of the deal.
What birght eyed ass hole thought it would be good to give Saudis access to military bases in the USA after 9/11.
Bush, Obama and Trump ---- seriously -- Americans need to wake up.
And don't ANY OF YOU EVER TALK TO ME ABOUT DEFENDING BORDERS.......you aren't about defending borders you are about supporting Trump's monument to himself and the wall.
blacks commit more mass shootings than whites. blacks committed three mass shootings in the last two weeks. did you see them reported in the national press, desertdetroiter? I doubt you would because they were not.

oh okay -- so let's just let the Saudis come in and kill us....because there are crime ridden areas in the USA where they are killing each other.
So -- lots of Americans raping too -- so why do we fight so hard to keep out Mexicans who might rape.?
Do any of you think through your arguments before you post.
But, but, but, Trump played nice with the Saudis.... Never did I see a US president cower to so many lesser nations before, and the lefties ate it up and loved it.
Remember when trump saluted the north korean general? Never before have I seen a president disgrace our military like that . But to trumplings it was awesome because orange man good.
